Almost Canon

True Giants of North America


Listen Later

“Fee. Fie. Foe. Fum. I smell the blood of an English Man” is synonymous with one thing in this world…..giants. 

    These enormous beings were and are a force to be reckoned with, one that man has battled with throughout History. 

    They are often depicted as gods or magical beasts like the cyclops or titans. 

   But what if these mythical beings weren’t so mythical? Stories of real life giants have filled the pages of history across the globe. So this week we dissect Mark A. Hall and Loren Coleman’s book “True Giants: is gigantopithecus still alive” and investigate the accounts of True Giants in North America.

In this episode we cover giants like the Man Mountain of Okefenoke; Judaculla; Genoskwa and the Stone Clads; The Chenoo and Wendigo; the Alaskan Gilyuk; as well as encounters with giants like n Montana, California, Florida, North Carolina, British Columbia, Alberta and Alaska. If a True Giant was suspected to have encountered there’s a good chance we’ll cover it! This is a part 1 of a 2 parter, sit back, relax and enjoy this weeks episode!
